Crema's Take

Timothy's Cafe is a buzzing neighborhood spot where the quirky, eclectic energy matches the quality of the food—think hearty breakfast burritos with chorizo and expertly executed eggs benedict served by genuinely friendly staff who know their stuff. Whether you're ducking in for a quick coffee or settling in for a slow morning with friends, the full breakfast menu and pastries deliver, and the creative atmosphere makes it feel less like a chain pit stop and more like a place with real character. With nearly 3,400 reviews and a 4.5 rating, it's clearly become a Cleveland favorite for people who want both substance and personality in their morning spot.

Good food, good service, quirky atmosphere. We got the Breakfast Burrito with Pork Chorizo and the Eggs Benedict. Both were super good. Will have to try other stuff next time. Kimberly took good care of us, no notes. The atmosphere was unique and bright.

My friends and I were in town so we came here for breakfast! I wasn't big on the way they did the menu. 2 eggs (egg whites costed extra) toast and choice of meat. 3 pieces of bacon for $13 Cajun fries came with it or another side option but who wants cajun fries for breakfast? Hashbrowns, maybe. Definitely not needed especially if I already have bread. Two starches? To add pancakes OR french toast it was extra. Even more starch. They would not let me substitute the fries out for one biscuit and gravy or anything else. The biscuit and gravy tasted like can gravy. Most of the time these little hole in the wall places are where you will find some of the best gravy, I just wasn't expexting this! The service was okay!

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Grampy’s Café for a light breakfast, and it certainly didn't disappoint! Known for its cozy atmosphere and delicious offerings, this spot is quite popular, so we found ourselves in a brief queue to get in. Thankfully, it wasn't long before we were seated. Once inside, we quickly ordered the pancakes, and they were delightful! Fluffy and flavorful, they made for a perfect breakfast treat. The ambiance of the café added to the experience, providing a nice, relaxing setting that allowed us to enjoy our meal before heading downtown. Overall, Grampy’s Café is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to enjoy a tasty breakfast in Cleveland. The wait was minimal, the pancakes were wonderful, and the vibe was just right for a leisurely start to the day. Highly recommended!

This Cafe is a well oiled machine! It has the best funky, eclectic, artsy atmosphere. It crackles with energy. The staff are friendly and the service is top notch. Our breakfast was quickly served and delicious! I chose a staple item, eggs benedict. It was perfect. Enjoyed this very much.

Great experience! Good food and service delivered by the staff at Grumpy’s, especially Maria! She’s got a great sense of humour and good banter! Very knowledgeable about the menu and allergens. The menu is clearly marked for GF items. The menu does have a warning about gluten free and the risk for cross-contact for wheat, dairy, and meat. No GF surcharge, but there is a surcharge for vegan options. I had the gluten free pancakes, and family I was with enjoyed all their meals. Good coffee. Love how the place is decorated so cheerful and local artists works for sale. Maria (and my dad) gave permission for photos with her - she requested they appear on the Grumpy’s FB page.
